I like arranging things at ninety degree angles and drinking tea. Guitar squoinker in We Are Not Devo.

@adicarter I suppose trees do have a finite lifespan, but it's definitely weird-looking.

I was helping one of the Graves sheep get the juiciest nettles from a bit she couldn't quite reach through the fence the other day! They don't look particularly underfed, that's for sure!

[Daniel Pencavel @DPencavel]

@adicarter Unless a sheep gnawed all the bark off at the bottom, but that's a bit of a reach!

[Daniel Pencavel @DPencavel]

@adicarter Yeah, well dead! We had no idea why either.

[Daniel Pencavel @DPencavel]

@adicarter Lovely feet, them!

@adicarter We did a full three-album Oldfield Xmas dinner this year - was perfect, tbh.

[Daniel Pencavel @DPencavel]

@adicarter It's as good, but there's just something about the Breville pattern that makes it feel special.

[Daniel Pencavel @DPencavel]

@adicarter Oh god! That's a life lesson and no mistake. Our olden-days one died in dramatic style when it sprayed molten cheese across the room as it reached its climax. The plates were mainly composed of decades-old blackened grease by that point though, so it didn't owe us anything.

[Daniel Pencavel @DPencavel]

@adicarter I have to say, while our newish Breville is generally fine, it doesn't create a quality separation between the triangles, which means we have to use a pair of scissors to divide them. Our old one virtually popped them out as individual twins without any additional surgery.

@adicarter It's actually not that far, is it, but as with anywhere in Sheffield, if there's a hill involved, it makes it seem loads further away.

[Daniel Pencavel @DPencavel]

@adicarter Ah, I'm glad there isn't too much in the way of aural cross-contamination. How're you finding the commute?

[Daniel Pencavel @DPencavel]

@adicarter How're you getting on in the New Place? Hope you've made the transition okay.

[Daniel Pencavel @DPencavel]

@adicarter Sadly ours only manage about 1 mile/100m respectively these days, but they still love going up there, even if Ebby ends up being carried in her special hound satchel for most of the way.

[Daniel Pencavel @DPencavel]

@adicarter I really love trudging up there in the snow - I find it very peaceful in there compared to Sheffield's other parks.

[Daniel Pencavel @DPencavel]

@adicarter It's my favourite! It used to feel quite a way away from us, but I realised that I can actually walk there in almost exactly half an hour - it's a big uphill, but good exercise.

[Daniel Pencavel @DPencavel]

@tokyojojo @jintyjanoo I was enjoying that vid over your shoulder. Some very skilful eyelash repainting!

[Daniel Pencavel @DPencavel]

@adicarter @TheBlackDog Bloody marvellous! Looking at these delectable images does make me miss eggs - I'm only glad that baked beans are, and always will be, as vegan as kale or quinoa - I'll never be robbed of beans on toast. 😊

#GardeningTwitter Why is my Hawthorn doing this?! I planted bare root plants last winter - they began to grow really vigorously for a couple of months last spring, then the leaves began to curl, an odd white powder appeared, and they stopped growing. And it's happening again! ☹️
